Руководитель Arca критикует Circle в письме об IPO

cryptonews.ruPublished on 2025-04-06Last updated on 2025-06-06

Circle сталкивается с критикой со стороны Джеффа Дормана, главного инвестиционного директора инвестиционной компании цифровых активов Arca, из-за выделения компании $135 000 во время недавнего первичного публичного размещения акций эмитента стейблкоинов.

В открытом письме, опубликованном в социальных сетях, Дорман обвинил Circle и ее руководство в недальновидности, назвав выделение «ненадлежащим» и объявив о закрытии всех счетов Arca в Circle.

Согласно сообщению Дормана, Arca получила только $135 000 участия в своем заказе на $10 млн по размещению. Дорман сказал, что Arca была одной из первых организаций, сделавших предложение. Руководитель сказал, что компания является одним из первых спонсоров Circle и держалась уверенно даже на фоне слухов о том, что Circle откладывает свои планы IPO из-за макроэкономического шока от пошлин. В письме говорилось:

«Arca прошла через ад и вернулась, как и любая другая криптофирма за последние восемь лет. Большинство из нас держится вместе и помогает друг другу. Я не могу поверить, что наши усилия, направленные на то, чтобы помочь вам расти в течение многих лет, привели к тому, что вы дали нам шуточное, одноразовое распределение. Вы первая и единственная криптокомпания, которая когда-либо относилась к Arca таким образом».

«Большая часть управленческой команды Arca покинула Уолл-стрит восемь лет назад, чтобы основать криптофирму специально для того, чтобы уйти от клоунов TradFi, таких как вы. По иронии судьбы, вы прошли полный Circle», — говорится в письме.

Дорман также сказал, что Arca закрывает все счета в Circle и будет отговаривать другие компании от партнерства с гигантом стейблкоинов.

Circle дебютировала на публике 5 июня после листинга на Нью-Йоркской фондовой бирже (NYSE) который, по мнению профессионалов отрасли, является важной вехой для сектора криптовалют, поскольку эмитент второго по величине стейблкоина по рыночной капитализации открывает доступ к ликвидности из традиционных финансов.

Hacker Leaks GTA6 and Launches a Token: Leaked Videos Become Ad Space for $CYBERLEEK, Must Buy Tokens to Vote for Next Clip

A hacker group called "CyberLeek" has leaked gameplay footage of the highly anticipated video game *GTA 6*, which is slated for release in 2026. Simultaneously, the group launched a meme token, $CYBERLEEK, on Solana. The leaks, which include maps and gameplay clips, are heavily watermarked with advertisements urging viewers to buy the token. Investigations of blockchain data reveal that the token was created and funded from a single wallet approximately eight hours before the first leak was released, suggesting a coordinated plan. The group has implemented a voting system where token holders can "vote" for the next type of content to be leaked by sending $CYBERLEEK tokens to a designated wallet—a process that permanently transfers the tokens to the hackers. This creates a self-sustaining cycle where interest in the leaks drives token purchases. Financially, the operation involved minimal upfront costs (less than $3,500 in out-of-pocket expenses) but generated significant revenue. On its first day, the token saw $15 million in trading volume, netting the creators an estimated $30,000 from transaction fees alone. While the group later burned a large portion of its developer-held tokens (worth over $1 million) to build trust, the fee-generating mechanism remains intact. The game's publisher, Take-Two Interactive, has initiated legal proceedings to identify the hackers. Despite this, the case demonstrates a new model where leaked intellectual property is used as leverage to promote and profit from a cryptocurrency, with meme token markets serving as an additional revenue stream.

Jensen Huang's Daughter: From Chef to an $8 Million Annual Salary

Madison Huang, daughter of NVIDIA founder Jensen Huang, recently made a rare public appearance in Beijing during the 2026 World Robot Conference. As the Senior Director of Product and Technology Marketing for NVIDIA's Physical AI Platform, with an annual salary of approximately $1.2 million, her visit focused on evaluating leading Chinese robotics companies like UBTech, Unitree, and others. This highlights NVIDIA's strategic interest in the burgeoning Chinese robotics ecosystem, a key battleground for the development of Physical AI—technology that enables machines to understand and interact with the physical world. Huang's career path is unconventional. Initially pursuing her passion, she studied culinary arts, worked as a chef, and later held a marketing role at LVMH. She joined NVIDIA as an intern in 2020 after completing an MBA, quickly rising through the ranks. Her brother, Spencer Huang, followed a similar path, closing a cocktail bar he co-founded to also join NVIDIA, where he now works on robotics software. Jensen Huang has publicly addressed nepotism concerns, humorously noting that some "second-generation" employees outperform their parents. The conference itself underscored China's vibrant robotics sector, marked by Unitree's recent blockbuster IPO and a pipeline of companies preparing to go public. While hardware development and manufacturing are advancing rapidly, industry leaders like Wang Xingxing of Unitree point to the next critical challenge: developing the "brain" or AI that allows robots to perform diverse, unseen tasks based on simple instructions. With massive manufacturing scale and diverse real-world testing scenarios, China is positioned as a central player in the global race to define the future of robotics.

He Gave Wang Xingxing the First 2 Million, Now Serves as Chairman for the Next 'Unitree'

On August 19, 2024, Unitree Robotics, China's "first humanoid robotics stock," went public. Its founder, Wang Xingxing, started a decade ago with his self-developed XDog. In 2016, at a critical funding juncture, he received his first angel investment of 2 million RMB from Yin Fangming. This bet has since yielded a return of over 140 times. Yin Fangming is more than just a key investor. He was a co-founder of the AI robotics company ROOBO, whose own venture ultimately struggled. This firsthand experience with the hardware challenges in robotics gave him unique insight when backing Unitree, a company renowned for its hardware R&D and cost control. While his own company faltered, Yin continued investing shrewdly. He partially cashed out some Unitree shares early, reinvesting the proceeds into sectors like energy (e.g., solid-state battery firm TaiLan) and commercial aerospace (e.g., small launch vehicle developer XianDeng Aerospace). However, his most significant move after Unitree is his deep involvement with Galaxy General, a leading embodied AI unicorn. In July 2024, Yin stepped from behind the scenes to officially become its Chairman, indicating a role far beyond a typical investor. This comes as Galaxy General is viewed as preparing for future capital moves. Yin's career has consistently been ahead of the curve—from mobile internet to AI and robotics. Known for his foresight and low profile, he declined an interview for this story, offering only a statement encouraging support for visionary entrepreneurs like Wang Xingxing.

Coldcard Theft Reflection: Source Code Visibility Does Not Equal Security

The article examines the open-source vs. closed-source debate in crypto, prompted by a theft of over $100M in Bitcoin from Coldcard hardware wallets. It clarifies key terminology: true "Free and Open Source Software" (FOSS) grants four essential freedoms (use, study, share, modify), while "source available" code, like Coldcard's firmware, may have usage restrictions. The piece argues that visible source code alone does not guarantee security; actual safety depends on the economic incentives for thorough, ongoing review by skilled individuals. Using Bitcoin Core as a model, the article describes a successful, transparent open-source development culture built on public review and consensus. It contrasts this with the Coldcard case, where a critical bug in a lightly-reviewed, source-available library went undetected for years, highlighting a "tragedy of the commons" scenario where assumed but absent scrutiny creates vulnerability. The economics of licensing are crucial: restrictive licenses can limit the pool of motivated commercial reviewers. Finally, the article explores AI's impact. It cites the Bitcoin Red Team's use of AI to rapidly audit codebases and find vulnerabilities at scale, demonstrating a powerful new tool for security. However, AI also floods projects with low-quality code, straining maintainers. The piece concludes that in high-stakes crypto, only well-audited projects—whether open or closed-source—can withstand evolving threats, with AI both challenging and aiding security practices.
